When I click a video in Project Bin while Clip Monitor is off, Clip Monitor will show up. It is really annoying. It was not like that before. Please fix it ASAP.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I can confirm this behavior with Flatpak and appimage.

Clip Monitor can be switched off via the View menu but is enabled and brought to focus as soon as any clip is selected in the Project Bin. There is no setting to control that further.
